Meg Munn MP visits S4S in her bid to raise awareness for Sleep Apnoea and deaths on UK roads caused by sleepy drivers

Meg Munn MP has been campaigning for several years to raise awareness of Obstructive Sleep Apnoea, particularly the effects it has on road safety where it can cause undiagnosed drivers to fall asleep at the wheel. She recently visited Solutions for Snoring (S4S), a dental laboratory in her constituency to find out about the latest products the company are manufacturing to help breathing during sleep.

Approximately 1000 dental practices now offer screening for sleep apnoea and this figure has increased in recent years. S4S undertake training for dentists and also provide dental equipment for patients who grind their teeth.
